Kent guest from United Kingdom signed the guestbook on Wednesday 1st April 2009

"A huge thank you to yourselves and the staff for the stillness of our retreat days with you. We loved the room. We loved the food. We delighted in the log fire. The views were beautiful. The house and its atmosphere restored us. We were warmly welcomed and taken such good care of. Best of all, there was no pressure! I can't tell you how important that was. My work as a chaplain is full of pressure, targets to meet, people to see, things to do. To feel able to do nothing was a special gift and helped me really relax. I have sung your praises hither and thither, and will continue to do so. You have created a special oasis and filled it with love, holiness and peace. Thank you!"
